Coronavirus Watch: Another $1,200 coming your way

Senate Republicans unveiled a $1 trillion coronavirus stimulus package Monday that includes another round of $1,200 payments, more help for small businesses and schools planning to reopen.

But a major stumbling block is a proposed sharp decrease in the $600 weekly unemployment bonus Democrats consider crucial. Here's what we know about the next round of stimulus payments.

It's Tuesday, and this is the Coronavirus Watch from the Paste BN Network. Here is the most significant news of the day, as of 1 p.m. ET:

• The Food and Drug Administration issued another warning Monday to not use certain hand sanitizers that may contain methanol or wood alcohol, a toxic substance when absorbed through skin or ingested. The FDA is continuing to update its "do-not-use list of dangerous hand sanitizer products," which includes 87 varieties of hand sanitizer that should be avoided.
• The head of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention says he has been injected with an experimental COVID-19 vaccine in an attempt to persuade the public to follow suit when one is approved.
• The U.N. says coronavirus-linked hunger is leading to the deaths of 10,000 children a month because of fears of contamination and movement restrictions, according to the Associated Press.
• The head of critical care who worked on the front lines of the coronavirus pandemic at a Baltimore hospital has died from the virus he helped fight. 
• In Tennessee, Dr. Deborah Birx, the White House's coronavirus response coordinator, urged Gov. Bill Lee to shut down bars and limit indoor restaurant dining to help curb an explosion of infections among young people. Lee said no.
• Eight states set records Monday for new cases over a seven-day period and eight states had a record number of deaths, a Paste BN analysis of Johns Hopkins data through late Monday shows. Tennessee set records for both.

Today's numbers: There are more than 4.3 million confirmed cases in the U.S. and more than 148,000 deaths, according to Johns Hopkins University data. Worldwide, cases have surpassed 16.5 million with more than 655,000 deaths. See the numbers in your area here, and check out where cases are rising here.

Do you have questions about the coronavirus? You can submit them through this form. Alice from Waterbury, Connecticut, asks: What is the racial makeup of positive cases, hospitalizations and deaths?

The coronavirus pandemic has had disproportionately devastating economic and health consequences for communities of color in the United States, due to persistent racial inequities in wealth, employment, housing, access to health care, and more. Two Paste BN analyses show that neighborhoods with the highest rates of infection from the deadly virus are more densely populated, have lower household incomes and have higher percentages of nonwhite residents.

• Population: On average in the U.S., white people comprise about 60% of the population, Hispanic or Latino people 18% and Black people 13%.
• Confirmed COVID-19 cases: 38% white, 32% Hispanic or Latino, 20% Black, according to preliminary CDC data.
• Hospitalizations: 33% Black, 32% white, 23% Hispanic or Latino.
• Adjusting for age, hospitalization rates for American Indian or Alaska Native people are about 5.3 times that of white people.
• And rates for Black people and Hispanic or Latino people are approximately 4.7 and 4.6 times the rate among white people.
• Deaths: 50% white, 22% Black, 17% Hispanic or Latino.
